The following hypotheses, relating to native trees, arose directly from the IMAF development process: 1. 'Suitable habitat for native tree species will be created or maintained through retaining floodwater on floodplains.' 2. 'The health and growth of native tree species will increase through retaining floodwater on floodplains.' 3. 'Native tree species will germinate and recruit through retaining floodwater on floodplains.' 4. 'Suitable habitat for native tree species will be created or maintained through flow enhancement.' 5. 'The health and growth of native tree species will increase through flow enhancement.' 6. 'Native tree species will germinate and recruit through flow enhancement.' 7. 'Suitable habitat for weed vegetation will be created or maintained through retaining floodwater on floodplains.' Information on the validity of these hypotheses is required for improved decision-making, investment and monitoring of TLM sites, and for Basin-wide management.
